What is an IRS Determination Letter and how can I obtain a copy of Carnegie Mellon’s IRS Determination Letter?
An IRS determination letter is a ruling issued to an organization if its application and supporting documents establish that it meets the particular requirements of the section under which it is claiming exemption. Carnegie Mellon has a Tax Determination Letter under IRC Section 501(c)(3) indicating that the IRS recognizes Carnegie Mellon as a tax-exempt, non-profit educational institution. To obtain a copy of the University’s IRS Determination Letter, please contact the University Tax Manager via email at ampecora@cmu.
